Habakkuk 2:2-4
Christian Standard Bible

God’s Second Answer

2 The Lord answered me:

Write down this vision;(A)
clearly inscribe it on tablets
so one may easily read it.[a]
3 For the vision is yet for the appointed time;(B)
it testifies about the end and will not lie.
Though it delays, wait for it,
since it will certainly come and not be late.(C)
4 Look, his ego is inflated;[b]
he is without integrity.
But the righteous one will live by his faith.[c](D)

Habakkuk 2:2-4
English Standard Version

The Righteous Shall Live by His Faith

2 And the Lord answered me:

(A)“Write the vision;
    make it plain on tablets,
    so he may run who reads it.
3 For still (B)the vision awaits its appointed time;
    it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seems slow, (C)wait for it;
    (D)it will surely come; it will not delay.

4 “Behold, his soul is puffed up; it is not upright within him,
    but (E)the righteous shall live by his faith.[a]
